Kozio, Inc. has defined and is delivering the embedded test solution for today's advanced electronic products.
For designers of today's high-performance 32-bit embedded systems who must deliver high quality quickly and at low cost, Kozio delivers a comprehensive and configurable suite of validation software tools that provides a extensible and reusable solution. Unlike custom development of test and diagnostics software, Kozio provides the fastest and most cost-effective path to fully-functional hardware.
Our customers build state-of-the-art products, and deliver them to consumer, industrial, computer peripheral and other market segments. To stay ahead of their competition, they must constantly innovate in hardware and software design; in manfacturing and test; and in delivering high-quality products that meet the needs of their customers. The challenges they face in doing this are many:
Increasing system complexity: Advances in embedded processors (in performance and functionality, to name just two), along with the speed and complexity of interfaces, drive up the hardware complexity. In addition, operating system and applications software running on these large embedded systems frequently mask the dependencies and interactions among system components.
End customers constantly call for smaller, faster, cheaper, and lower-power solutions.
Shorter product lifecycles: Shorter product lifecycles lead to compressed development schedules. An additional strategy that many systems providers follow is to reuse a common hardware platform, and enhance product features through application software and some small hardware changes.
Razor-thin profit margins: Intense competition and uncertain economic times together drive down selling prices; often faster than costs.
Workforce efficiencies: Outsourcing and downsizing are realities in today's business climate. The end result is that our customers have to do more, and do it better, with fewer resources. Writing custom test and diagnostics software takes away resources that can be better and more cost-effectively applied to writing mission-critical application code. Deploying kDiagnostics™ frees their engineering staff to concentrate on development, secure in the knowledge that their validation, verification and functional testing needs are fully satisfied.
Kozio software reduces project schedule risk and development costs while increasing test coverage and end-product reliability. Our solutions are production proven (on over 140 unique circuit boards), and will ensure you have better hardware, sooner.
